I am going to start with Didcot (one of my instrument Sets) and then populate with other manufacturers.
I hope this may be useful for new builders as well as those considering an upgrade or change.

Hi I acquired a I.C.I. 'scrap' Didcot weather station around 2002 and had it on my roof for about 5 years - I liked the indication in DOS especially when the wind changed it developed the green tail. It had no barometric pressure sensor, but around the time it packed in I had managed to alter the programme to display pressure but could never find a 'solid state strain gauge' as mentioned on the Didcot web site that now seems to be removed.
I still have the associated 'datataker' manuel and some programme floppys, but the sensor array ended up in the skip.
Heres a shot of the display

Hi,
Do you have any documentation for the Didcot? A set of scanned documents would be appreciated. It is a shame the sensors went to a skip they work well with Weatherduino and are very well made.
Here is mine:
